"The most self-destructive of the president’s obsessions was his single-minded devotion to tariffs, which promised to undermine the economy and raise the cost of everyday life for millions of Americans. In fact, according to a recent report from the nonpartisan Tax Foundation, the president’s tariffs cost the average household $1,000 over the course of last year."

"And each moment the president spent on his ideological obsessions — from his attacks on racial integration in government to his effort to punish pro-Palestinian speech on college campuses — was one he did not spend on the promises that put him into office."

"And yet, according to the time-keepers from NBC News, in Trump’s record-long 108-minute SOTU speech, he spoke about affordability for a measly 2.9 minutes."

"Affordability is the issue for the 2026 midterms. In virtually every poll, with virtually every demographic, some version of 'inflation/prices/cost of living/economic problems' tops the list of the most important challenges facing the country. It also tops the list of reasons Trump’s own voters are ditching him, according to polling from Morris Predictive Insights."

"No, inflation is not at 1.7 percent;

No, you won’t find gas for $1.85 per gallon;

No, tariffs were not paid by foreign governments;

No, drug prices are not going down."
